A Fine Selection of Cheesy Macho Boomer Riffs in E Minor
By JaiClone on February 8, 2026 5:43 pm
So, over the last few years, I've gradually built a small collection of riffs quite similar to each other based around the E minor pentatonic/blues scale, and because they're pretty basic, they became a bit of a 'go-to' whenever I picked up a guitar to try out or testing a pedal or whatever.
This track is an amalgamation of some of those riffs, built into a song... of sorts... risks were taken and sacrifices were made, but I guess it somewhat works in the end...?
Although I identify as non-binary and in no way fit stereotypical masculine vibes, I seem to unintentionally gravitate towards writing rather masc riffs, as this piece demonstrates... *shrug*
Also, feel free to mention if any of these riffs are ripping something off, because I wouldn't be surprised.
